Recent Tutoring Session Reviews

★★★★

"In today's session with the student, we covered: The Geography of Spain-location, its frontiers, population, it's landscape and Ceuta and Melilla-two important cities in Spain. We also covered The invasion of Spain and the Battle in Covadonga.
The student was only slightly struggling with remembering certain facts about the events that took place in the invasion of Spain and certain vocabulary was unknown to him. However with help from the tutor, he was able to grasp the concepts covered.
His overall attitude was good and he was completely interested in the content. He readily understood and remembered expressions found in the content. Extra practice was left for the student to read up for the next session.
I would say that today was very successful because he remembered the points discussed during the evaluation exercise, allowing him to tell what he learned."

★★★★★

"The student had a current event due Friday, so we worked on that for the first half of the session. We then focused on the present perfect, and integrated a translation into the session using the present perfect. He also got a 96% on his last listening quiz!"

★★★★★

"We came back to focus on two new units of learning as well as review lessons from before. Today, we went over how to say "this or that" and how to give and ask directions. The lesson was pretty heavily focused on vocabulary. After the lesson, we did some exercises on writing or translating French sentences. I think this helped a lot, and we will continue to do this at the end of each lesson as a review of all material, plus integrate it into current learning material. Pronunciation is still a key struggle, but I have noticed a lot of improvement. The most we can do is to continue to practice it outside of lessons as well as focus on it in current lessons. "

★★★★★

"We conducted our session entirely in French, as we did last week. We began by discussing difficulties the student encountered in the video that he watched as part of his homework. I clarified the points he brought forward, and we went over the subjects discussed in the video, including various expressions, cultural references, and vocabulary words. We had a brief tangent going over uses of the subjunctive tense. I had him use a program that gauges students' pronunciation based on their oral readings of text. This activity served to address some pronunciation problems he said he had been having."

★★★★★

"We continued reading menus, moving on to a more challenging one. We also practiced ordering food using "Je voudrais...". Along the way, we talked about a lot of cultural things related to food and restaurants in France. The student did really well with remembering the vocabulary from last time, so I take that as a sign that this method of learning vocabulary is effective for him."
